Statesmen 17

We've learned what our statesmen seek to achieve: Thinking we'd believe all that we receive. We perceive each view and trick up their sleeve, These elegant thieves, who try to deceive. Mistaking our peeves, they call us naïve; In lieu of reprieve - our sad hearts must grieve.

Hey R.A nice rhymes, thanks for the entry, congrats on a nice placement, in the future good to remember less repetition of sounds eg perceive, deceive, receive, will place higher. Thanks again!
